Additionally, you should take a look at what the code is doing.

My preference is usually option 3, using an event. It means you can use
your ball in other situations, where that "call" back to the root may or may
not be necessary. Regarding cleaning up references in event listeners, you
can use a "weak reference" when you call addEventListener(). Also, I oft
Option 3!
Always opt to use event based architecture. It promotes loose coupling of
your components. Although it might be a bit more code, you will be able to
use BouncingBall within many games, or other applications.

The FlexBuilder 3 debugger is light years ahead of the Flash debugger.
There's not that steep of a learning curve going from Flash to Flex, as long
as you already know AS3.
I just started using LuminicBox (do a search on google for the AS3
version). And i have to say i'm quite impressed.
It's a logger nd you can set the importance of messages (log, warn,
error etc);
You can also use the alpha version of XRAY (but icant get the
connector to work in AS3)
And
The Flex 3 Debugger is solid.
